Has anyone else seen those insufferable Pepsi ads with Will.i.am re-mixing Bob Dylan? May You Stay Forever Young by drinking our artificially sweetened, calorie-rich, teeth-staining swill. Pepsi has consistently tried to brand themselves as the cola the yung’uns drink, the new generation of cola. Pepsi is what you drink whilst listening to the latest Black Eyed Peas mediocrity, updating your Facebook page and digitally uploading your thoughts on the latest TMZ scoop. Whatever. Hat tip to graphicdesignblog.org, who took the time to put this chart together:
Notice who stayed consistently classy (with the exception of New Coke) and who relentlessly undermined their historical brand by pathetically and unsuccessfully worshiping at the altar of youth. Coca-Cola for life, brah.
